I do a new house walk thru . My wife Vivi and I retired to Ecuador. we bought a plot of land and started to build a house here in the town of Manglaralto, a quiet little beach town. My wife tragically passed away from cancer during the whole process. I now continue the dream for her. I know this is what she would have wanted. I love you Vivi , always and forever 💖

Congratulations Sorry for the loss of your wife Perhaps I’ll meet you on the beach when I’m exploring myself in February 🌊
What a journey Andy , it's been such a crazy year! I'm grateful for all the speciak moments we got with mom , you always followed her in her craziness and stood by her when times got rough ❤❤❤
@@gabrielaecheverry1031 I am grateful for all of our time together.
I love it.
love that coastal area a lot. Moving down in July and several little towns are great.
@JonJohnsDad I have lived here one year so far. No regrets !
@@Expat-happy-hour look forward to meeting you. Keep up the content it's great.
@JonJohnsDad Thank you sir.
Nice t-shirt 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
@tilicio05 thanks, yes that is one of the locals favorites shirts. I got it at the festival for $5. I wanted to get the Miami shirt that had "Messi" name on it, color was blue and orange. But they did not have it in my size.
Hi Andy. We used to call where the 'gray water' went at our house in upstate NY, a "drywell." It was on the opposite side of the property from where the septic tank was. The drywell never had to be pumped out b/c it was perforated and allowed the gray, sink/shower water to leech into the ground. Glad to see see you are doing well. Brian D.
@briand.1694 Hey I know you ! Thanks Brian, hope all is well at Boca Teca !
You'll catch the next sunset!
That table looks great Andy!!
@gabrielaecheverry1031 Thanks Gigi !
How far from el Centro do you live?
@warrenmcallister7624 I think I am far away from there. I am on the coast, about 2.5 hours from Guayaquil .
You're going to do great brother, just live the struggle for however long it takes. You'll be ok.
@warrenmcallister7624 thanks brother , appreciate that !
thanks, fun tour. I bought a fabulous market basket in Oaxaca years ago. The handle is real wide so there is no stress on your forearm while carryingl I'm tryihg to see if I can bring it. Maybe a store w local craftspersons like that could make me one w my preferred handle. Maybe put a sheet or towels over cushions?? Going to be hard to keep off. Your lovely home is coming along. Congrats.
@BPe-ie9je hello, I know around here it is very common for many things like your basket to be handmade to your liking. Any of these craft shops specialise in making many different items like that. So, for my sofa, the cats are already using it. That is ok , not a big deal. But my big dog Coco, I just flip the seat cushoins upright at night before I go to sleep. That's when the violations happen.
Hi Andy!!!.....very nice neighborhood and very good crafts place. Take care of yourself. That chair is very good
@rosecheriv Thanks, Rodrigo, say hello to the family for me !
😉👍👍👍
What an Adventure, thanks for Shay this is cool!
@mariafbrandenstein5935 Hi Maria, yes it was a good day !
The fence looks good. I saw that it has been a bit cold lately. According to Accuweather it was around 20 in the day?
@BluntTrauma621 Hey Mike, yes, the weather has been cool, a little overcast. This will be my first whole year living in Ecuador. So It is interesting to experience this kind of cool fresh weather living just below the equator.
Nice to see you and Coco getting out for a walk and breakfast
Hi Kris, Yes, was nice to be out enjoying the day !
Very sorry to hear of your loss, wonderful house.
So very sorry for your loss. I first saw you and your beautiful wife on the New Years Eve video with Mike and Kris. It was easy to see Vivi's zest for life. So glad you're keeping her dream alive. Sending you love and light ❤ The house looks amazing!
Manglaralto: one day, town/village?market?beach? getting around (walkable?) happy for you,,,,slow steady progress,Congrats
Thanks !
Enjoying your updates. Your place looks great 👍.
Thanks so much
Thanks for sharing the tour! You’ll have that place looking cozy in no time. Vivi would’ve loved it!
@krissynelson1265 Thanks Kris, yes it will take some time and patience I guess.
Thank you for sharing. I recall Vivi dancing on street of Olon. Always loved her gorgeous dresses too. She had you by her side. I'm thinking of you as you go thru this transition. Love your new home. Don't isolate yourself. I say that,,,I live remote.
Yeah, really miss her ❤
Hola Andy , Enjoy your videos . Hope to fly into Manta soon. Will move to the coast after spending my first year in Cuenca . I'll rent a motorcycle to see Ayangue , Olon , Puerto lopez , Playas , Salinas . Can you suggest a place to use as a base location ? Decent . Near the beach . Won't need a spa or anything like that . Haven't found a experienced coastal person here in the mountains . I'm a retired Ashley Furniture sales person from the midwest . Snorkel in my apartment pool 4 to 5 days a week . Any advise appreciated . Gracias
Hola, I think the town of Olon is a really cool place for a home base. It's a popular town with Expats and locals. From there you can reach other places north and south of there.
Thanks , Very nice video . I'm in Cuenca planning first trip to the coast . Do they offer rides on the ultralight ? ( Paraglider ) Thanks again !!
I think the paraglider was someone's private toy, but I think they have paragliding in Puerto Lopez.
Que hermoso vídeo y paisajes
Lindo
Epic sunsets down here.
They sure are !
Nice video Andy, beautiful rmemories😊
Whats the temp ? Do you have any safety issues? feel safe ?
Hello, the temp was around 77 degrees. The daily temps usually range from 72 low, to 83 high. Safety , well yes I know Ecuador has had in increase in crime, mainly narco, gangs, stuff like that. I do feel safe in theses smaller coastal towns. Im here to stay .
Do you swim in the ocean every day ?
I was just swimming this morning. I do swim most days , either in the morning or later in the afternoon.
Great video. Ayangue is on my to visit list
Yes the water is much calmer here . The town beach is in a cove.
Another day in paradise. I would like to check out snorkeling there.
Congratulations on your new channel
Thanks Mike and Kris. This particular video got a copy right violation for the background music. So for now this video is stuck in "Private mode" . Lol
please stay safe
